In Angola they feel prisoners political accused of any crime. They say that it is a democratic regime that it is in the middle of the joy of their functions. The democratic potencies close the eyes and they point that it is like this that it is good, that it is like this that it is made the stability in Africa. Here is the income of the terrorism of which Europe is not gotten to loosen. Who supports the corruption and their dictatorships, in the bottom it is also terrorist without the knowledge.

The Logic of Democracy in Angola

By José Eduardo Agualusa

http://makaangola.org

I am reading this and I can’t believe it. So I read it
again: “When people, including some politicians, say that there is a
dictatorial regime in Angola, this is not true”, says Paulo de Carvalho,
professor of the Faculty of Social Science of the Agostinho Neto University, in
Luanda. He made this statement at a conference organised by the Centre for
African Studies of the Institute of Political and Social Science in Lisbon
(ISCSP), under the theme “Democracy and citizens’ rights in Angola”. In order
to substantiate his belief, Paulo de Carvalho referred to an event which had
taken place a while back in the Mário Soares Foundation in Lisbon, where the
journalist and human rights activist had criticised the Angolan regime, and the
scholar had replied to him thus: “If there was a dictatorial regime in Angola,
you, my friend, Rafael Marques, would not be here speaking on our behalf,
rather we would be crying at your graveside”.

This story comes from the Lusa news agency, and
has popped up on several social media sites since last Wednesday. Let us assume
that the statement is true. If it is true, the sociologist Paulo de Carvalho,
with his presumptuous train of thought, has opened the door to a complete
reinterpretation of the History of Humanity. In that case, let us examine the
following:

Agostinho Neto was at the mercy of Salazar.
Nevertheless, Salazar did not have him killed – therefore, the Salazar regime
was a democracy. A buoyant democracy, it may be said, since Salazar could also
have been killed, amongst so many other important dissenting voices, such as
Álvaro Cunhal, Mário Soares, etc., etc.

Pinochet could have had Pablo Neruda killed
(overtaking by a few days the prostate tumour which eventually took the life of
the great poet). Nevertheless, he didn’t do it. Therefore, Pinochet’s regime
was a democracy.

Dilma Roussef, the current president of Brazil, was
imprisoned in the early ‘seventies by the military regime which took over that
country in 1964. Nevertheless, the military did not kill her. Therefore, that
particular military junta was a democracy.

The assassination of the youths Isaías Cassule and
Alves Camulingue, in May 2012, by the Intelligence and Security Services of the
State (SINSE), is a detail that doesn’t seem to bother the sociologist Paulo de
Carvalho. According to this strange logic, if a democrat manages to voice his
opinion without being killed, then there is democracy – even when all the other
voices have been silenced.

Yes, Salazar had Humberto Delgado (and so many others)
killed. But he spared Mário Soares. Therefore, the Salazar regime was a
democracy. Yes, Pinochet had the singer/songwriter Victor Jara assassinated,
but he spared Neruda. Therefore, the Pinochet regime was a democracy.

What about shame?!

Is there no shame? I go back and read the Lusa
story again, and I am ashamed of him, of the sociologist Paulo de Carvalho, I
am ashamed of the president, José Eduardo dos Santos, I am ashamed of all those
people who dare to wag a finger at a man like Rafael Marques to remind him that
he is still alive, that he could be dead, but is still alive, and that he owes
his life to the democratic spirit of those who have the power to kill people –
and don’t do it.

In a democracy, it is not done to wag a finger at
those who disagree with us to remind them that they may carry on, that they
will not die for their convictions. In a democracy, to allow others to disagree
is not a sign of tolerance (or affection) – rather it is the essence of the
system. The quality of a democracy may be measured by the diversity of freely
expressed opinions.

BANKS IN LUANDA.

We deposited our money in the banks of Luanda, and when we want him, the money disappeared and the banks don't take the responsibility, therefore of banks they only have the name. Destroy the corrupt ones!

Agualusa "For the first time, I feel that can say that am a writer

when of the release of her last book, the Rainha Ginga, a report of "as the Africans they invented the world". In declarations to the Portuguese agency, José Eduardo Agualusa said that her new book, that he "wanted to write there is a long time", the answers "an inquietude" of the Angolan ones, that you want to know her past, in a new perspetive. Agualusa explained that it "took time" to write it, because he had of "informing more" and he needed to "put in the head of the it Swings, in her universe", pointing out that "everything happened in a time very retreated."

S.O.S. UN! SURVIVE OF THE GANGS OF THE DEATH!

The bank millennium in the street king Katyavala, in Luanda, Angola, has the generator at night to do a lot of gas and in the daytime, and the residents are with the windows and closed doors, but even so they are impeded of they live her normal life. The residents already complained but in vain. They are Portuguese of the teixeira duarte that have orders for us to kill us for later occupy the 3 buildings. The land in the rears already spoiled it. That is a beautiful invitation to the general revolt.
